The Two Faces of January

The Deaths in 2017 site have just recently added to its list three notable deaths that share another common ground:

• Keith Chegwin (17 January 1957 – 11 December 2017)
• Collier Bay  (foaled 21 January 1990-10 December 2017)
• Antonio Riboldi, I.C. (16 January 1923 – 10 December 2017) 

They are all born in January... for one.  January 21st is also the birthday of my daughter and then note from my last two posts:

• James Gilbert (born January 15, 1982)
• Catherine Carey (c. 1524 – 15 January 1569)

Carey’s date of death together with the birthday of my son and life partner who celebrate their birthdays on January 13 (exactly 2 years apart), generates a “January 15(x3)” pattern-cluster. 

And so we have a “January 15(x4), 16, 17, __, 19, __, 21, __, 23/ Date Sequence” pattern-cluster.  January 19 is the birthday of my brother and January 23 is the birthday of my new grandson.  

It’s also interesting to note that January derives its name from Janus— the two headed God...  The God of doorways... of beginning and endings.
